Personally, I don't think it hurts for that to be discussed in public. I think it hurts more when blatantly incorrect info is passed around as if it is fact. It's ok to be wrong. Everyone makes mistakes. How you handle it is what matters.

I can tell you that I didn't notice that error on the forum first... I received an e-mail making a mockery of it and it's not the first time that has happened. So that kind of stuff makes news in our circle pretty quickly. I think the inaccuracies hurt more than an honest public discussion because the "enemies" have probably already seen what has happened anyway.

Just my opinion. Not sure if you even want to hear it.

Anyway, I commend the work Andrew has done in organizing people and hope it pays off. In terms of the big picture one little error isn't a big deal. I just hope there are attempts to minimize that sort of thing.

Mike
